Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension
This article reviews the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of spontaneous intracranial hypotension.
RECENT FINDINGS
The hallmark symptom of spontaneous intracranial hypotension is acute orthostatic headache; however, clinical presentations can be heterogeneous. New evidence shows that lumbar puncture is not always necessary or sufficient to establish the diagnosis. Some patients may have normal opening pressure, which suggests that insufficiency of CSF volume (hypovolemia) rather than CSF pressure might be the underlying mechanism. Several neuroimaging modalities can aid in diagnosis and localization o...

Clinic-based Procedures for Headache
PURPOSE OF REVIEW
Headache disorders are common and disabling, and many therapies that are effective and safe are procedural.
RECENT FINDINGS
After pivotal clinical trials, onabotulinumtoxinA has become an established preventive therapy for chronic migraine; it is better tolerated than many other treatments and may be useful for other headache disorders. Peripheral nerve blocks, especially greater occipital nerve blocks, have amassed evidence from randomized trials in the acute and short-term preventive treatment of migraine and cluster headache. Trigger point injections and sphenopalatine ganglion blocks have r...

Headache in Children and Adolescents
This article reviews the approach to a child or adolescent with headache, the criteria for common diagnoses, and the evidence base for treatments.
RECENT FINDINGS
The guidelines for acute and preventive treatment of migraine were updated in 2019. These guidelines summarize the available evidence and outline the questions that should be addressed in future research. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of several new classes of drugs and devices to treat adult migraine in the past few years has resulted in ongoing or planned pediatric trials.
SUMMARY
Headache is a common symptom in children, and ...

Headache in Women
PURPOSE OF REVIEW
Women are greatly overrepresented among patients seeking treatment for symptoms of headache pain in general and migraine in particular. Understanding the presentation of headache in women in relation to hormonal changes both during the menstrual cycle and throughout the life span is essential for appropriate diagnosis and treatment.
RECENT FINDINGS
Although perimenstrual migraine attacks are generally without aura, the diagnosis of migraine with aura has been added to the headache classification for menstrual migraine to account for women with the diagnosis of migraine with aura who experience ...
